Awesome video!
I used to time block my day too but still got distracted from sociaal media which made reaching my daily tasks unachievable and depressing.
Until I started using a browser extension called "Betimeful" which basically hides news feeds and recommendation videos from social media platforms when you’re in work mode. The BEST part about it is that it’s completely free!
No sign-ups, no credit cards, no bs!
Thanks for sharing this great interview. It would have been nice to hear the guest speak more
Dude was too full of himself ad talking too much. But it's a conversation so we forgive you. Plus you'll look at this and be too hard on yourself if you're humble one day so ouch. Less coffee lol
Air traffic controllers for your time is such a nice analogy 😊
You learn when you have to.
Lol there's nothing more difficult than having to work on a dissertation . Ask a welfare mom with no family from foster care wanting to not shove her child in daycare that wih corrupt systems all around ready to destroy their life. Jesus.
If you're a productivity nerd, and already into these ways then it goes with you and isnt a problem.
Goes with you: your personality and way
Honoring another way and what works for them is how you could explore and branch out
If you manage everything doesn't it all turn to cardboard?
Sampling your audience works if you pick the good sampler.. 🥰😂 meee
ryan is talking way too much as always. let your guests do the talking just ask some questions
Advice from an author, your rough draft sucks so just write to the end. But it's not the end, edit, edit, edit. Use read reviewer friends for feedback and then make the inevitable changes. Now let the book out into the world and get rejected because nobody loved your work except you 🥴
Edit (see? Editing) : Take breaks, take weeks if you like – don't neglect other important things going on.
The intro background music was relaxing.
38:35 advantages of “time blocking” versus “listing”
32:10 Time Blocking “anxiety”
Take a shot everytime Cal blinks.
Let your guest speak more
I wish you would stop talking about your day and like let him describe a normal person's working day You have a unique day which does not apply to 90.9% of the rest of us
Two of my favourite authors in one video, how awesome is this!!!
Best podcast I have heard in months.
I’ve been waiting for this Ryan. Cal Newport is incredibly smart man! Always a pleasure listening to him
Nice exchange. But Ryan is too wordy.
Hello Mr Holiday, thanks for creating this video with Mr Newport. It would be easier for viewers if you added chapter stamps to this video. Cheers.
i need more Cal .. for sure …
💘
My fav duo
Great interview Ryan. Cal has great ideas. I can’t wait to read Digital Minimalism.
Ryan preaches Stoicism but voted Biden, a historically corrupt, immoral, asshole. His reasoning was Trumps ego. I doubt a good stoic would believe ego and sacrificing a rich life for the state is worse than corruption and immoral character.
I love both of you and your work, but this one was a bit too «why can’t other people just get their shit together/I just like other smart & interesting people» for me. Sorry…. 🤷🏼♀️Not everyone can live in your kind of bubble. A bit more humility would be good…
My two favourite humans ever in an hour collab💃💃💃💃❤️🌹huge thanks for this great video please do it again🔥🔥
I don't have time for this. Is there a TLDW?
